Whether you're just starting out or want to refresh the fundamentals to make sure you haven't missed anything critical that could slow your development as a chromatic harmonica player, this course is for you!
We all have been a complete beginner at some point in our harmonica journey and this course is designed to give you all the info you need to get familiar with your instrument, beginning with playing simple tunes.
Even after many years of playing I find it important to re-visit the fundamentals of technique. So be sure to go back to the basics as often as you can. I'll also be adding new lessons regularly.
In This Course You’re Going to Learn:
- Where the notes are on the chromatic harmonica
- How to get started with inhaling & blowing properly
- The rookie mistakes to avoid
- A couple of songs to get you started
- And a lot more...

A very good course that I will want to come back to and re-practice several times.
The exercises are very good and also quite challenging for a relative beginner.
I enjoyed this course very much and I like the bending lesson very much, excellent teaching.
I finally got the hang of bending notes.

A lot of good information, lets keep practicing.
Practicing these exercises are a great foundation.
Will keep at it!!
and very useful interessing but the last exercise I did not understand very well maybe because my English is so base and try to understand when you talk, I am missing something
Thank you for this course, does it exist somewhere in this site a pdf file whith all the courses ressources in a same file ?
Thanks Andre. If there is a pdf to download it will be featured on the lesson or a course page.
Excellent course. A lot of information .Thanks Yvonnick
A lot of work..though changes your technique and improves your playing
Excellent ….
I noticed that many of the fundamental lessons are missing from this course, I still need to practice them.
I am keeping here only the lessons on chromatic harmonica techniques. I moved lessons on the c major scale, pentatonic scale or arpeggios to courses relative to scales and arpeggios.
Thanks Yvonnick for these lessons as they have really help me to understand better in playing the chromatic harmonica.
After three years, I am still a frequent visitor to this segment. As I am learning new standards, I also go to other lessons for the scales I need to practice for a specific standard. No stone unturned here. Great job!
